[1+∞=¿]: Eden, Dystopia, and a theistic humanism.

Creator

Yates, Stephen., Florida State University

Abstract/Description

After over millennia of ideological dominance throughout much of the world, theism found itself set against a new philosophical system known as humanism which valued the proliferation and evolution of humanity apart from theism's Divine control. This struggle has played itself out in numerous skirmishes, from Cold War aggressions between capitalism and communism to modern debate over evolutionary theory and education. Current research in both fields shows that this continuous ideological war... Show moreAfter over millennia of ideological dominance throughout much of the world, theism found itself set against a new philosophical system known as humanism which valued the proliferation and evolution of humanity apart from theism's Divine control. This struggle has played itself out in numerous skirmishes, from Cold War aggressions between capitalism and communism to modern debate over evolutionary theory and education. Current research in both fields shows that this continuous ideological war has hurt the proliferation of either philosophy, leaving them often unable to constructively engage with the advancement of society. Because of this lack of engagement, one must look to pictures of the future to theorize how the two ideologies can engage one another for the benefit of humanity. Dystopian literature displays this future. However, Dystopia offers its explanation through a combination of the two ideologies, a theistic humanism that acknowledges Divine creation and control yet depicts the history of man as a struggle against that control in pursuit of his own evolution. This is presented through re-depictions of the Biblical narrative of Eden as a story of man's escape from a complex system of control. In analyzing Dystopian narratives throughout the 20th century (Zamyatin's We, Orwell's 1984, Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451, Gibson's Neuromancer, and Sterling's Schismatrix), this study reveals the evolution of the ideas of the nature and power of God, control, and human development, eventually culminating in the possibility of human divinity as evolution brings about the post-human, and with it a liberal and freeing definition of Deity.

In particular my research focuses on two Supreme Court cases which resulted from Lincoln's suspension. The Supreme Court cases discussed in this paper are Ex Parte Merryman and Ex Parte Milligan. My research will also examine various responses to the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus and consequently, free speech during the Civil War. The responses and reactions will include the opinions of Supreme Court justices in both of the cases and various other Judges, as well as public opinion. Show less

In a perfect world, every student would learn exactly the same way and the teacher wouldn't have to change his or her teaching method. However, each student in a classroom learns differently depending on his or her temperament. The genetically acquired temperament of a student has a variety of differences that may affect learning styles, in turn impacting academic performance and thus, grade point average.

However, each student in a classroom learns differently depending on his or her temperament. The genetically acquired temperament of a student has a variety of differences that may affect learning styles, in turn impacting academic performance and thus, grade point average. This in turn affects the student's overall confidence in school as well as the teacher's outlook on their class. Teachers may have a hard time adjusting to new students every year regarding both class environments as well as teaching styles. To address these problems, this complementarity mixed method study explores data of student temperament, learning styles, and GPA. Show less

Show moreThis thesis provides an overview of the history, development and of controversies in DNA testing in relation to precedence based on case law, as well as the future of evolving DNA technology in the Criminal Justice System. While there are setbacks of the way DNA is used today, the positive expansion of DNA technology has also been recognized. The immense possibilities of DNA are still being discovered, and lie in defeating limitations of evidence collection and lab quality. The knowledge and implementation of expanding DNA technology will aid in the creation and solid foundation of a more equipped justice system in the fight against crime while protecting the innocent. The goals of the Criminal Justice System in promoting and protecting the privacy, civil liberties and public safety of its citizens can only be achieved through the proper and full use of DNA technology. With a more structured and supported system of evidence gathering, coupled with better lab procedures and analysis, the development and growth of DNA's usage will be seen in rightful convictions and aid in the review of past injustices. The ability to use DNA technology to its full potential will be an important and influential tool for the future in the judicial process. Show less

Show moreThe term Afrocolombianidad embodies the kaleidoscope of cultural spaces and cultural productions of the African descendant population in Colombia. This investigation is intended to generate and contribute to greater academic and popular interest in the myriad of cultural expressions of Afro-Colombians which will serve to enrich the overall spectrum of Hispanic culture in the Americas. The argument of this thesis is two-fold: Afro-Colombian cultural productions are unique representations and reflections of Afro-Colombian history and social issues; and the cultural identity of Afro-Colombians is unique and merits further study in the context of Hispanic cultural studies in Spanish. Three specific genres of Afro-Colombian cultural production will be investigated in order to bring the argument to fruition, each receiving a chapter of discussion with the following titles: "Linguistic Identities of the Caribbean," "Literary Expressions of Afro-Colombia," and "Stilo y Sabor: Afro-Colombian Music and Dance." Specific cultural productions covered in the thesis include: Palenquero, San Andres Creole, the works of Candelario Obeso, Jorge Artel, and Gabriel Garcâia Mâarquez, Champeta, Cumbia, and Salsa (specifically in Cali). While the information presented in this thesis may not be considered as completely exhaustive as to the many aspects of each cultural expression to be studied, each item of cultural production is given ample attention in order to completely and sufficiently bring the initial two-fold argument of the investigation to fruition.
